DSU 2014 PLAY THERAPY INSTITUTE

Book review of Eric Green and Athena Drewes' "Integrating Expressive Arts and Play Therapy with Children and Adolescents" (John Wiley) in the Association for Play Therapy's "Play Therapy" magazine (March 2014 edition)

Just received the cover for my new book, "The Handbook of Jungian Play Therapy"! It will be available from Johns Hopkins University Press later this summer. It spans several years and various areas in my clinical work, especially with traumatized children and those affected by natural disasters. John Allan graciously wrote the Foreword, and it's magnificent (Thanks, John!). Hope some of you will find it to be useful and practical. Play on!

Jungian Play Therapy and Sandplay with Children delivers an overview of play therapy from the Jungian—or analytical—perspective and instructs how to incorporate sand play with children into clinical practice.

Picture taken at our last lunch as a group at the APT conference. Eliana Gil announced this would be her last APT conference, as well as she's retiring in June. While a little heavy-hearted, it was with joy that she transitions on. And I will miss her, terribly .
